The Treaty of Versailles, which ended WWI, led to the start of WWII, less than 20 years later, because of how harshly it treated Germany and how angry Germans were about this. 

When the Treaty of Versailles was written, the Allies (particularly France and England) were very angry at Germany and wanted to punish it as harshly as they could.  They took away all of Germany’s colonies.  They prohibited Germany from having a full military.  They forced Germany to admit all guilt for the war and they required Germany to pay a large amount of money in reparations to the Allies.

After WWI, Germans were very upset about the terms of the Treaty of Versailles.  They felt that the treaty was extremely unfair to them.  Germans wanted to get revenge on the Allies.  In addition, they wanted to make their country strong again.  They felt that it was unfair that they had been deprived of their empire and their ability to have a strong military.

The Germans’ anger about this helped bring Adolf Hitler and the Nazis to power.  Hitler and the Nazis promised that they would make Germany great again.  They said that they knew how to build the country again and make the Allies back down.  Because Germans were so angry about the Treaty, they were willing to accept Hitler and the Nazis even with their radical ideas.

Of course, it was Hitler’s rise to power that brought WWII about.  As Hitler tried to make Germany great again, he eventually went too far and forced the Allies to go to war with Germany.  This was the start of WWII.

So, the Treaty of Versailles’s harsh terms led to German anger.  This anger led to the rise of the Nazis. This rise, led to WWII.  Thus, the Treaty of Versailles led to WWII.
